I coming along. The biggest issues are getting Proteins and Water. My new tummy still makes that funny sound shortly after drinking. I completely stopped taking pain meds. Ready to get back to work. How are you progressing?

I'm finally on the upswing. I ended up back in the hospital for internal bleeding. I had a hematoma that was infected. Yuck!

But after three more days in the hospital and great care I'm feeling much better.

I'm struggling to get my Water and Protein too but my doc just moved me to phase 4 foods so I can eat solids now. I'm thinking that will help.

Glad everything went smooth for you

Yes I skipped phase three. Not sure why but following the docs orders. It's been two days on solids and I haven't had any issues. It is harder to stay hydrated since I'm no longer getting extra liquids from food and having to wait before and after meals to drink.

Have you tried Popsicles?

The sugar free Popsicles are a wonderful treat. I tolerate them well. Enjoy.

I am also really fatigued. I pray this will go away once I start eating solid food again. I can't get anything done. :)

I'm alright, thank you. I really can't eat much yet. I do two Protein Drinks per day and have a cup of chicken Soup in the evening and a half of a yogurt for a snack. I can have a little peanut butter...that is about it. Aside from having a couple of really bad days, I'm doing alright. My doctor gave me another week off work to try and get some nutrition in and for the diarrhea to resolve. I am taking in a lot of Water, which I'm thankful for. Are you back to work? How is that going for you. I'm nervous about eating and bathroom stuff away from home!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
